Of course the people who run the banking and monetary system understand the game, that's how they made enough money to buy up all the mainstream media outlets who tell you that they're "incompetent" and so forth - it's what they want you to think. They also want you to think regulations will solve the problems so that you will support regulations which will be written by the politicians and regulators they own, and will give them the waivers, effectively shutting down competition, and compounding their wealth. As Max Kaiser says, what we need to do is to hang the big time bankers that break the rules, that will get the economy back on track quicker than anything else will.

I watched the video too, most of this type of trading is done by the computer automated high frequency trading algorythm which Max Kaiser invented, it makes stock trading decisions and closes deals in fractions of a second, keeping those who don't have access to it out of the game.
